Hey all, I just bought a 98 acura GSR with a blown engine. I havent ever worked on a FWD car but im sure it isnt much different than the mustangs im used to working on. I hope to learn ALOT from this site. Thanks

The prev owner had all of the body damage and dings removed, along with a new coat of paint. And I got it for a hell of a deal. Even tho the engine is shot.
